As far as private party purchases. Anything that is shipped must go to FFL dealer, where upon the FBI check is then done before you can take possession of the firearm
If you are talking about private party sales, then no nothing is needed. However, if you go to armslist where most local private party sales occur, you will see the majority of listings on that site are local dealers and pawn shops. All of which will require the FBI check so they do not lose their FFL.
Most of the other guys that move guns on there that sell private, including myself require a valid permit to purchase or permit to carry. Either of these cards indicate that you have passed the FBI background check and the local sheriff has signed off on it.
While there are back alley deals and rare instances where this can be bypassed, it is not nearly as common or easy as you think.

No one in the gun industry considers "assault rifle" as mandatory full auto. Full auto is called a class 5 fire arm and not always even an assault rifle. Also I clearly said FTF (Face to Face) which does not involve shipping to an FFL.
As far as a carry permit.. that is not required by law to buy a gun. that is as you said "your choice". The only people required to do background checks are licensed gun dealers.
You are trying to twist shit to make it fit what you want, but none of what you are saying is required. Yes if you go to a gun shop or to a dealer you will need it but I clearly said FTF.
